Anyone have this combination working?

I have a snes/genesis emulator and they work fine on my intel macbook

however I cannot get the joystick(gamepad) to work
yet the same emulator and joystick work fine on my PPC imac


So I ask if anyone on an intel ibook is playing an emulator WITH a gamepad

if so what brand/model are you using?

I use an XBox 360 controller and an OSX Driver from here. Has worked for me with the emulators I have used, (Mostly MAME).

exca1ibur, do you use a wired Xbox 360 controller? Any idea if the wireless Xbox 360 controller with a play and charge USB cable would work?

Look after my manor, or I will bum you, literally, to death.

Yeah, I use the wired. As long as you can plug in via USB I'd assume it will work fine, as long as the driver is there.
